Granados v Velvet

Mr. Horwitz represented a internationally recognized fashion company as defense counsel in a wage and hour class action case involving over 400 plaintiffs. The class claimed that they did not get two ten minute breaks every four hours worked. The class was given one twenty minute break in the morning. The twenty minute break was at their request, so that they could enjoy a longer breakfast together. At Mr. Horwitz’s direction, the company obtained Pickup Stix releases from a vast majority of the class. The matter settled for a small fraction of the potential exposure.
